You can, however, paraphrase. That is not plagarism because you're admitting your editorial position and you're quoting generally...hopefull in proper context.

Hmmm.... That is an interesting distinction, paraphrasing. Are there strict rules that govern paraphrasing? Is it necessary to provide a link if you paraphrase? Some good examples would be helpful..

We'll be 'watching you'.

And, you better quit protesting, or else you're really be in trouble! (I hope I'm kidding).



OK, OK!! PEACE! I quit protesting 2 minutes ago!! That's it. Cool. I get the point! 'Quotes' it is! Always and every time! I gotta go now or the boss will screw me too! Can't be late for a board meeting, what?

Cheers!
